Parametric vertical coordinate formulation for multiscale, Boussinesq, and non-Boussinesq ocean modeling
Two physical parameters are introduced into the basic ocean equations to generalize numerical ocean models for various vertical coordinate systems and their hybrid features. The two parameters are formulated by combining three techniques: the arbitrary vertical coordinate system of Kasahara [Kasahara, A., 1974. Various vertical coordinate systems used for numerical weather prediction. Mon. Weat...
متن کاملNon-oberbeck-boussinesq effects in gaseous Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq (NOB) effects are measured experimentally and calculated theoretically for strongly turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection of ethane gas under pressure where the material properties strongly depend on the temperature. Relative to the Oberbeck-Boussinesq case we find a decrease of the central temperature as compared to the arithmetic mean of the top- and bottom-plate temper...
متن کاملNon-Planar Fronts in Boussinesq Reactive Flows
We consider the reactive Boussinesq equations in a slanted cylinder, with zero stress boundary conditions and arbitrary Rayleigh number. We show that the equations have non-planar traveling front solutions that propagate at a constant speed. We also establish uniform upper bounds on the burning rate and the flow velocity for general front-like initial data for the Cauchy problem.
متن کاملReentrant Hexagons in non-Boussinesq Convection
While non-Boussinesq hexagonal convection patterns are well known to be stable close to threshold (i.e. for Rayleigh numbers R ≈ Rc), it has often been assumed that they are always unstable to rolls already for slightly higher Rayleigh numbers. Using the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for parameters corresponding to water as a working fluid, we perform full numerical stability analyses ...
متن کاملTurbulent heat transport near critical points: Non-Boussinesq effects
Measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R using ethane gas near its critical point show that N is enhanced by non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq (NOB) effects when the top temperature approaches the coexistence curve. The empirical criterion that a small ∆ρ/ρ (ρ is the density) implies Boussinesq behavior is found not to be valid. An examination of data by Chavanne et al....
